DO NOT Give pets as Xmas gifts.
Too many of these “gifts” end up at the shelter .
A Dog/Cat is a gift we give ourselves and they come with many
sacrifices.
Time,money, and a certain amount of collateral damage in their puppyhood.

It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.
Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

People think it’s funny but one of the best tests of a person and systems is how it treats three types of people :

- servants
- poets
- children

How someone feels about those people and their accountability to and FROM them is a huge statement about their beliefs

I smoked for almost 20 years, but I didn't know what addiction was until I traded the Camel Lights for a Juul.

Don't mess with nicotine vapes unless you want to watch yourself turn into Gollum.
humbly proposing that vape pens are quietly one of the most evil inventions in the past 25 years and that everyone involved should be tried at the hague

Been thinking about what is so intensely off-putting about these two and I think it’s that they’re miming fun instead of being fun and the uncanny valley of that seems hideous

We gotta do a nationwide inquest into antisocial behavior. Leaving your dog's poop on the street. Not returning shopping carts. The What's Wrong With You initiative
people playing music/videos on their phone speakers in public is more than just mildly annoying and is instead a leading indicator of the decline of community and empath
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

vance has got to be the most cucked vp of all time. absolutely no power, completely subservient to a sundowning blowhard and an unelected nazi sleaze, so bored of waiting around for grandpa to give him something to do that he’s organizing forum raids like goons dropping in on habbo hotel

I think Talia generally has a lot of good things to say. I don't agree with this though. 1
as charming and whimsical as some will view this, it bears noting that absurdity—not militancy or might—are what people have chosen to repeat from the portland standoffs against ICE.

why is that?

what purpose does this serve?

Saying this 2 years into the first livestreamed genocide, that still has full support from the US, is pure insanity. The fact that this has 10k likes proves how utterly delusional westerners are.
We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

Speaking as a survivor of conversion "therapy" practice and one of the architects of the Canadian ban:

Bans on "therapy" for minors dont go far enough. Conversion "therapy" is actual torture and you cant consent to torture. They must also include bans for adults

Folks joke about wanting their cat’s life, and that wouldn’t be bad, but give me the life of a Canadian goose anytime. Summer home, winter home, free flight. Eat what you want, shit where you want, nobody fucks with you and god help them if they try. Yeah, that’s the life for me.
